Morobe
UNDETERRED by New Guinea’s sud den crop of sheep farmers Mr. Michael Leahy of the Morobe District, has decided to go in for beef. He has pur chased 45 pedigreed Polled Hereford fe males and two bulls which will shortly
be shipped to New Guinea. The cattle come from the Braidwood district of New South Wales.
It has long been believed that cattle would do well on New Guinea’s grass country, and the Labu-Wau road has now opened up much high-level country that should be suitable. Zenag, the highest point on the road, is well over 4,000 feet above sea level.
